" In Need "

A misfit is a person
Who doesn't have a place
No friend to give him comfort
When he dares to show his face.

Maybe the generation gap is wider
Or the wave length left unturned
Some where a fault has happened
And a human life is ruined.

His heart is full of yearning
With grief he cannot hide
Getting bigger every moment
With things bottled up inside.

Explosion time is nearing
It will happen every time
Unless the tension weakens
Or a good release he finds.

Love your neighbor, is a starter
But unless we understand
All efforts can be wasted
When we offer a helping hand.

By
"Martha Ellsworth"

     Wow! September is here and already some of the bushes and trees in the area are getting folage that's starting to show fall color, even though it will be some time till winter peeks around the corner.

     Most of our recent outings we are keeping as short as possible due to the smokey conditions made by the forest fires, we are spending a lot more time indoors till things clear up and they get the fires under control, or out!

     I keep coming back to our bird feeder, as the birds that visit us are such a joy to watch as they go about their feeding and bathing, the squirrels are always full of mischief, especially the younger ones as they chase each other back and forth across the deck, off into the trees then back across Lauries flower barrels, to her great distress!

     Two of our sons Mike and Martin came by the last week in August for a visit, they stayed with us two nights as they explored the area on their motorcycles, what a nice surprise to have them drop by.

     Fire season is still with us and the fires up in Glacier Park are still being whipped up into dangerous blazes by the sudden gusts of wind that happen this time of year.

     Our (Wooden half Barrel) of tomatoes are producing pretty well in this warm weather and it looks like this year it is worth while having watered & cared for them.

"A look at some of the weather we are having."

I should know better than to try to predict what the weather is going to do here in Montana, for every time I do it takes a turn to the opposite it seams, I am convinced it has a mind of it's own.

We were able to get a view ( through the smokey sky ) of Mars as it cruised by, also the sunsets have been quite colorful also due to the wildfire smoke. .

We have enjoyed having you come to visit us here on the net and
hope you have enjoyed your time here. We would like to hear from you
if you are so inclined! So with an old country "Thanks" it's bye till next time.
